Claudette Maillé
Nude

Magnificent Mexican actress Claudette Maillé has appeared in a whole lot of films and TV series, the majority produced in her native land, with one in particular that raised eyebrows (amongst other things) north of the border. As the free-spirited Gertrudis in the international film Like Water for Chocolate (1992), based on the famous novel of the same name by Laura Esquivel, a red-haired Claudette left little to the imagination during a startling sequence wherein she showers in a rustic outdoor stall made of wood, her body so steamed and heated, she sets the tiny building on fire. First it’s her naked breasts we see, dripping and slippery from a watering can full of water, then when the flames threaten to lick up her bare legs, she runs out of the stall, and winds her way through the desert, sans clothes, showing every bit of what the universe gave her. She’s eventually saved from the lust-filled heat by a cowboy who lifts her naked form into his saddle for further adventures out yonder. While she didn’t give up any goods in it, US audiences may also recall her from the film Before Night Falls (2000) with Javier Bardem and Johnny Depp, where Claudette played Maria Luisa Lima. In her own Mexico, she’s known for her roles in several TV series, including Gente Bien in 1997, Pacientes in 2012-2013, Señorita Pólvora and Love from the Hood in 2015, Rosario Tijeras in 2019, The House of Flowersfrom 2018-2020, and Who Killed Sara? in 2021.
